Question

directions: watch the video and then complete the activity below. biomolecules (updated 2023) (7:48) https://360learn.in/v/36 \biomolecules.\ amoeba sisters. youtube. 30 july 2023. directions: for each statement, write a \c\ if it best applies to carbohydrates, \l\ if it best applies to lipids, \p\ if it best applies to proteins, or
\ if it best applies to nucleic acids. 1. i am useful for a fast source of energy. 2. i have involvement in the immune system. 3. i am helpful for long - term energy storage. 4. i have a large role in muscle development. 5. if athletes \pasta load,\ they consume a lot of me. 6. a mutation in dna would initially start with me. 7. i am the primary biomolecule of cellular membranes. 8. enzymes, which can speed up reactions, belong in my category. 9. i am important for insulation. 10. i contain elements c, h, and o and have a ring - like structure. 11. my category includes genetic material. 12. i can contain long fatty acid chains.

Explanation:

1. Carbohydrates are a fast - energy source.
2. Proteins are involved in the immune system (e.g., antibodies are proteins).
3. Lipids are for long - term energy storage.
4. Proteins play a large role in muscle development.
5. Pasta is rich in carbohydrates, so athletes "pasta load" on carbohydrates.
6. DNA is a nucleic acid, so a DNA mutation starts with nucleic acids.
7. Lipids (phospholipids) are the primary biomolecule of cellular membranes.
8. Enzymes are proteins that speed up reactions.
9. Lipids are important for insulation.
10. Carbohydrates contain C, H, and O and can have a ring - like structure.
11. Nucleic acids include genetic material (DNA and RNA).
12. Lipids can contain long fatty acid chains.
